Bug Description
[Impact]
# Alt-Backtick on Desktop Icon Whilst Alt-Tabbing Prevents Further Alt-Tabbing
## Version information
* `uname -r` -> `4.4.0-22-generic`
* `unity --version` -> `unity 7.4.0`
If more information is required, please ask.
## Why I think this is a bug
When you select an icon other than the desktop icon, it is possible to continue `alt-tab`. With a small number of tabs this can be annoying if you accidentally start to `alt-backtick` in the desktop icon instead of the one you wanted to.
[Test case]
## Steps
* `alt-tab` until desktop icon is highlighted
* `alt-backtick` on desktop icon
* Attempt to `alt-tab` once more
## What happens
Further input such as `alt-tab` and `alt-backtick` is ignored until I stop pressing them.
## What I think this should do
I believe it should allow me to continue to `alt-tab` to another icon. This would not lead to any bad behaviour.
[Possible Regressions]
Nothing known.
